People who buy WinRar should consult with psychiatrist about their medication. WinRar is obsolete. We have better open-source alternatives for a decade or even longer.

I’m gonna go against the grain here and recommend 7-zip

[–] Denvil@piefed.world 16 points 2 weeks ago

I've heard from some people that 7zip is pretty good

[–] pelya@lemmy.world 12 points 2 weeks ago

xz comes standard with every Linux distribution, and it implements the same 7zip compression algorithm but with more options.

[–] Hawke@lemmy.world 11 points 2 weeks ago

7zip is good but the UI is shit.

[–] W98BSoD@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 weeks ago

[–] LodeMike@lemmy.today 6 points 2 weeks ago

7zip has been around for a couple decades now

[–] AllHailTheSheep@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 weeks ago

There's also the more modern and powerful zstd. Better than 7zip/xz and far more flexible.

8zip is better because it’s one more.

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 weeks ago

7zip? Or is there a new one for me to check out.

[–] Legitimate_lake@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Ark is good too

You keep your hands off my ACE Archiver.

No way I would touch THAT, don't worry :)

This sign can't stop me because I can't read

Also no psychiatrist in a 300 mile radius accepts new patients
